Atonement by Ian McEwan
5.0
This book. Oh my gosh this book. It was so boring and then it suddenly made me SO FREAKIN MAD! I have never been so angry at characters before! And the boring parts were way too long. And then the end! Gaaaahhhhh!
So anyway it's a pretty good read, had to push my way through some of it but hey, I read it in two days. I don't know how to describe this book or to whom I could suggest it. Basically, if you don't want a 100 pages plus narrative of one day through multiple persons perspective and then another long narrative of a different day, you might not like this book.
Overall, I feel enriched by the story that was presented at me. It reminded me that authors are powerful and can change everything you thought you knew (and also make you throw books.) Now it's time to watch the movie and see how it fails.
